Coordination of• the material flows• the information flows• the cash flowsto get goods and services from the raw material
stage to the consumer when they are needed, of the quality required, at an affordable cost to the consumer, and with a profit for the businesses in the supply chain, and to get them back into the supply chain through recycling and reuse.
Why is this important to Indiana?
• Geographic location – access to markets and transportation
• Agricultural base – beginning of supply chains• Manufacturing base – diverse, we can make
anything and get it to market fast
Design of the Process
• Key to profitability – compress time between when payment comes from customer and when suppliers must be paid.
• Reduce waste – time and materials
Introductory Labs
• Just-In-Time poker chips and dice demonstration– Randomness– Batch sizing
• Process design lab – make a Key Lime Pie– PERT/CPM– Line Balancing
Whip 8 oz heavy cream and 3 tsp sugar.
Zest limes
(1-2 tsp), make extra for garnish if desired.
